About Lake Maintenance

The best housing maintenance service provider in Australia - it’s not just our vision, it’s who we want to be today.

10 years ago, we were an idea. What if there was an alternative maintenance service provider to the ‘big guys’? One that offered the business systems to get the work done right, and used local trades to do it.

A decade later, we’ve proved ourselves with a real track record of delivering a high volume of quality maintenance services. We’re proud of the numbers: every day, we work with 1,600 skilled subcontractors to complete 300 orders.

Naturally, we’re pleased with ourselves. More importantly - so are our clients. We now deliver maintenance services to an area 10 times the size of England. 10 times!

Our business has stayed true to our first idea for scalability: we employ local trades to deliver the service and provide our established systems, training programs, safety procedures and quality accreditations to ensure consistency.

Being big enough to deliver is about having skilled, qualified people who are ready when we need them to be. We can support our clients with rapid transitions, and still deliver the quality our clients expect from us.
